I read a lot this year. Old, new, borrowed, blue. This was the best. The paradox of reading something so avidly that you can't put it down and then I got to the last 20 pages slowing down to a snail's pace and reading so slowly so that it wouldn't be over so quickly. * Mike Downey, European Film Academy This unique and engaging book is both a non-chronological memoir and an idiosyncratic cinematic history textbook of sorts, one that informs the reader about the director's own life, work and creative processes, but also about the broader context of cinema's untold, hidden history through entertaining vignettes and little known (yet important) facts. * Dijana Jelaca, Brooklyn College. Anyone interested in the artists' real and imaginative lives, in European and global cinema and history, or simply in the plethora of inspiring lives and stories-the knowledge of which makes one humbled and grateful-will find this a most fulfilling, joyful read. * Gordana P. Crnkovic, University of Washington
